manifest that a great deal Of work has
been done by counsel in getting ready to
go on with the trial. Every particle Of
the work done, too, has been done with
exscsness aud thoroughness, no pains or
labor being spared, and 1t Ia the general
remark Of those who have been watching
the case closely that the State has tho
most syatematized way Of bringing 1t up
and presenting 1t to the jury Of any case
ever tried in the county, II not the State.
So far oil course the evidence ia purely

The youth with her said a man would
bring in her beer. simultaneously with
this remark the door was pushed shut,
and hand was placed on her throat and
she was thrown backward. a hand
caught her right arm and another her left
one. Then she struggled 80 hard against
their brutal treatment that two others OF
her assailants caught her by the feet. +
She heard several strange voices, and a
number Of names were called. OF these
she remembers only "Will," Harry
and "Henry." She thinks at least dozen
men were in the party. This seems tc

OF men got there to receive her she cannot
